( ) Yes, I am! 
Add a note (or two) at the end of the briefing, because as it's early in this campaign (1932), there is yet no core (units) available in this scenario - but better letting the player know it's normal, right? And, as well, to inform that engineers and tanks are expected to show up soon... )

02Nomonhan1:
A splendid scenario; most of our troops are to advance, mostly in a column formation, but at the (high) risk of being outsupplied - but when, from where? That's great!
1. I think one letter is now missing in the text of the event "Tanks Spotted!" is "Soviet tanks are spotted heading for the battlefield. |Note your new order: You need to destroy at least 4 of these units.", as "Yo need" sounds a little strange to my ears...
2. Nice sec obj, but... are there really 4 tanks on this battlefield?
Three BT-7 at some point, that's 3 tanks. The recon armored car in principle doesn't count as "tanks", that's still 3. The two SU-1-12 are mobile raiding artillery... and does actually count as artillery (according to the Unit Navigator), so that's still 3. I've checked with #orbitalcommand and in the Editor, but I'm still finding 3 tanks only... so, unless I've missed something, there is no possibility to achieve this sec obj to destroy at least 4 of them in there is not even 4 on the map...
Either there is something one need to explain to me, or I suggest to change this in a "destroy at least 2 of these units".
Otherwise, no serious issue found so far.
Damn, "so far" indeed!
The tanks that saved the Japanese day are mentioned in either the scen desc or the briefing. I'll add that engineers are on their way.ColonelY wrote: ↑Thu Sep 03, 2020 4:40 pm While playing 00Shanghai the first time, as I had no engineer (and wasn't sure there would be some of them), I started to clear minefield using the Soviet method... that's why I've replayed it later.
So, I'm indeed convinced that it would be better if the player know that some engineers (and tanks by the way) should show up soon!
How large are we talking about?Erik2 wrote: ↑Wed Sep 02, 2020 3:50 pm It is time to pick up the samurai sword and head into battle again.
This is a collection of Japanese scenarios from 1939-1941. You will be fighting against Chinese, Thai, British and US forces.
There are quite a few larger maps/number of units here, so probably not for small-scale tinkerers
But a few smaller scenarios inbetween should give you some respite.
PM me if you'd like to test it.
Ready, Colonel?
Indeed, these 3 obj should all have the "option", or possibility, to be considered as failed (rather than just still open) if not completed...ColonelY wrote: ↑Thu Sep 03, 2020 4:57 pm [...]
1. Well, about the tanks it's normal as it can't be completed rigth now. But it should be considered as "failed" anyway, so that's first a little something to add.
2. Pri obj -> at least two flags to control (out of 3)... I had 2 (it's even written 2/2) but it's not considered as completed...
Well, maybe putting a "Turn Start" (at scenario end limit) instead of a "Capture VP Event" in the triggers may fix this issue?
3. In the triggers, about the "Tank survive" -> one trigger "Set Objective State" as completed must be added, otherwise nothing change (except the +1 spec pt)...
[...]
(In obj label & triggers, of course.)
I've found why it wasn't considered as achieved: I really like this senario; it reminds me a bit of a western movie, where a cavalry column is advancing in Apache territory without really knowing if the flanks are safe or not... nor its supply base! ): 3 of the 4 pri obj hexes have no name... 
perhaps add some name for each and every one of these golden star flags? (otherwise it's completed after the first MG-foxhole destroyed ) add a short event, informing the player (among others) about the new sec obj ("Do not lose any tanks") I don't know if it's on purpose; otherwise, both units may perhaps have the same name? 
An idea to fix it (which has been successfully tested, thanks to the Editor): maybe select the option to "check from the start" this sec obj and just remove, or desactivate, the trigger "Tanks survive"... About this point, then keep all the rest as it is now! What about adding a second enemy AT unit on this battlefield? After all, we've an obj not to lose any tank(s) but they don't meet much direct threat... Perhaps this second AT unit could cover the two artillery units? 
: a little something to complete... adding under unit definition "Category - Land" and selecting "Core" (why not, there is no aux unit anyway - except the Construction Group, of course) may fix it! I agree about the map, for sure but I didn't have any problem with this scenario. All aircraft came and went as I needed them. Seemed fine to me.Mascarenhas wrote: ↑Sun Sep 06, 2020 11:56 pm Invasion Guam
Exit units hex is not working. A pity, considering this is a more elaborated map and mission, away from those tedious Mongolian plains.
